The door rolled to the side, a mixture of smells hit them, and also sent shivers down there spines. Azurelao looked at them, then walked inside, the others followed, the vault was grim, like the most boring people in the world had been in it. It was a little dark as the lights didn’t work all that well. In the first room was the usual stuff, just the control for the door, and a few machines. Ahead of them was a heavy metal door, with a wheel mechanism to open it, azurelao stepped forward to open it, but couldn’t, “Someone give me a hand with this would you?” said azure azurelao straining, Shave stepped forward and they both spun the wheel as hard as they could, it started to turn, then finally opened. They stepped inside the door into a corridor, and another door at the end, still the dim lights were there, but it was getting darker the further they went in. The next door opened fine, azurelao stepped forward through it, the others followed, they heard scratting in the corner, they looked but only saw a flash of something big jump out of the way of there sight. They continued wearily when they came across something written on the wall, ”hey guys, come look at this” everyone walked to it, It was the Word ‘Bethesda’ Written on the wall, “What the hell?, I wonder if we are all just in a game and Bethesda are the ones who created it haha” said Leo, everyone just looked at him. “Come on lets go” said azurelao when Ex asked “Hey Azurelao, you don’t expect us to just search the entire vault do you”?, azurelao looked at him while walking and said “No, the overseer had detailed maps of the entire vault, so we go to his office to find them”, Ex nodded in approval of the plan. Then out of no where came lots of banging from around the walls, then a human sounding growling, everyone readied there weapons for combat.

The sounds stopped, “Everyone be very alert, someone watch our rear” said Bev, “We need a flashlight, I cant see a thing up here” Responded Azurelao. “Hey I’ll lead” said Rai, “I got night vision in this helmet, I’ll keep watch up ahead”, Azurelao nodded at him, Rai took lead while shave and Wicker watched behind. They continued through the vault, randomly hearing strange sounds from inside the walls, “Good job all these vaults are laid out the same huh guys” said MastaC, a few people laughed in agreement. Eventually they reached the overseer’s office, Everyone began searching for a map of some kind, “Here” said bev, they walked over to what she was looking at, “The overseer’s Terminal, it still works, and look at that, it has information on what this vault was used for in tests” she said, sounding intelligent. “Read some out” said azurelao, “while we keep searching” Azurelao said while looking at the other guys. “Oh my god” said bev, “What is it?” said shave, “This vault” she replied, “it was used to find a way to combat radiation, so radiation was slowly pumped in through the vents in here, say, you don’t suppose those things we heard, those noises, you think maybe……” “Maybe the occupants never died or left” said Azurelao finishing her sentence. “Ok guys” he continued, “GET SEARCHING”, we need to get the hell out of here and quick”. They all began searching as fast as possible, “Here” said MastaC, he lay some paper on the desk, azurelao took something out of his pocket, and said “This here is a blueprint to a normal vault, if it matches this one we just found, then its not our vault” He put the Blueprint over the newly found map, “yes it matches, sorry guys this ain’t our vault, now lets get the hell out of here”, just then there was more banging, then a familiar sound, a siren, the siren from the door, it was closing, “SHIT, everyone back outside NOW” none of them argued, they all started running, they ran back into the main room and there mouths dropped at what they saw….

People, about 50 of them, but they were on all four’s, they looked vicious, and they looked thirsty for blood, there skin was almost red, like they were made purely of blood, “Everyone start shooting NOW” shouted Azurelao, they all started shooting as many as they could, but they were strong, very strong, Wicker was throwing radiation left right and centre, “OK PLAN B, RUN” shouted azurelao, they cleared a path to the door and ran, shooting as they went, they jumped through the door and saw they weren’t any in there, everyone made it through and MastaC and Leo being the last tried to shut the door. But the monsters were too strong and too many, then wicker started punching them, and beckoned Leo and MastaC out of the way, he ran into the room, using his height and weight to knock most of the monsters back in, everyone watched as he started punching, then wicker moved to the door and pulled it shut. “NO” everyone shouted “Whats he doing”, then there was a small explosion, it almost took the door down, they all stood, watching intensely, Wicker, the quiet one, had sacrificed him self with a grenade. “Come on guys, we need to move”, they all started to go, when the door opened again, they all readied there weapons, but lowered them when they saw wicker come through it. Azurelao chuckled and said “what the hell”, he shook his head laughing and continued to walk, he turned around to walk and started walking, when they got to the door they saw it had in fact closed, azurelao punched in the code and it didn’t move, “Shit” he said, “We are screwed”, he had only just said it when the siren started, there was the familiar screech then the door rolled to the side. Standing there, were 4 BoS Soldiers, in front of them was a woman, she had long blonde hair and blue eyes, and was carrying a Laser rifle. “Miss Lyon’s” said Azurelao, “Hello initiate” she replied, “My father has requested a meeting with you all, a soon as possible, we have a couple of vertibirds out side, lets go”. They started walking, Azurelao stood with a smile on his face, when MastaC walked past him he said “Do I detect a flicker of love there Azurelao?” he laughed, “Shut up” said Azurelao slapping him across the back of the head and laughing at the same time. They followed Sarah Lyons to the surface, where there were indeed 2 Vertibirds Stationed, “ok, are you all comin now?” she asked them all, They all nodded, “might as well” said Azurelao. They all boarded the Vertibirds and began there flight to the citadel. On the way Shave and Leo laughed at Wicker, who was bunched up tightly because his height was making him a bit cramped, Wicker made a radiation ball threateningly, shave and Leo stopped laughing immeditly. They touched down only 10 minutes after take off, they disembarked the vertibirds and looked around at the initiates training, “This way” said sarah, she led them to a circular room in the south of the citadel, where Elder Lyons was waiting. As soon as he saw them enter he said “Ah you’re here I see, please everyone take a seat”. They all sat down around a big circular table, “Now, I have a proposition for you all. Now I know all about your little mission to find the treasure in the vault you all grew up in, but I’m not interested in that treasure, I’m interested in technology, and im willing to offer you all a job, to collect any technology or books from these vaults. But at the same time, I want you to blow them up, I feel its time to put the past behind us. All these vaults are remembrance of the past, of our fauilures as humans. Now in return I will grant you all some unique training, martial arts, guns, anything. You name it. I will also ensure your loved ones are very well taken care of in the mean time. And you will forever have a place in the brotherhood. Please, I have prepared some rooms for you all, sleep on it, and give me your answer tomorrow.” He finished. They all left the room, “So what you guys think” said Leo, no one said anything, “well personally I don’t trust them, because it’s a well known fact that they don’t like ghouls, but I am willing to give them a chance”. “Lets sleep on it” said Azurelao, they all agreed, except shave, who hadn’t forgotten what the BoS had done to him years earlier. They all went to separate rooms, and went to sleep. Shave stood outside all the doors, “Good to see you guys again” he said and went inside his room and himself went to sleep.

~Child~

Name: Wicker
Age: 15

Pre-evacuation History:

Wicker's parents died in a tragic scene when he was born. No one knows how it happened, only that one of the doctors was involved. He lived by himself in the vault, no one watching over him, and the Overseer didn't seem to care. No one ever gave him a name, so he took up the name "Wicker" for unknown reasons. In all his time spent in the vault, he never spoke a word to anyone. Ever. No one ever learned much about him, and he always seemed to shun anyone out whenever they came close.



~Adult~

Name: Wicker
Age: 27
Race: Ghoul (His skin is dark green with no gashes or wounds.)
Hair: Unkempt Gray (Wicker has a full head of hair. Think of a gray "High Riser" style.)

Height: 7'1
Weight: 113.7 lbs

Apparel: Normal tattered clothes with a ripped up scarf and a worn tan longcoat

Weapon: None. Wicker has the ability to focus radiation stored inside him into powerful projectile and blast radius attacks.

Post-evacuation History:

After everyone evacuated the vault, Wicker spent days traversing the Wasteland. Eventually, he found his way to the Dunwich Building, where the ghouls inside trapped him in a room. Eventually, he became a ghoul himself. After spending several further years in solitude, he learned to harness the radiation around him into a form of power, which he used to escape. Seeing as he never went into the basement of the Dunwich Building, the Obelisk never drove him mad.

After he recieved a radio transmission, he went to look for the others from the vault for unknown reasons. The transmission told him to meet somewhere in an abandoned metro tunnel located in D.C., which brings him to where he is now.

Name: Zoey
Race: Ghoul
Age: 24
Hair: Unkempt black, covering her right eye.
Eye Color: Zoey's eyes have no pupils, only the iris, which is a faint, very bright blue, as if she were blind (which she isn't).

Apparel: Merc Grunt Outfit, as well as an amulet her mother gave her.

Weapon: 10mm Pistol

Zoey is a ghoul that was living in the Dunwich Building all her life. She was alone ever since she was a year old, when her parents were killed by the ghouls living within. Strangely, they left Zoey alone and never bothered to kill or eat her. She grew up inside th building, going mad for a while until she regained sanity when she turned twelve.

One day, a young man by the age of fifteen wandered into the Dunwich Building. Not knowing how to interact, she stayed hidden for a while. When the young man began to turn into a ghoul, she made her move. While he sat down, she approached him and asked him who he was, recieving no answer. Despite his silence, Zoey was overwhelmed to have company with a sense of sanity.

Zoey found out Wicker's name and has been around him ever since. She became attracted to him, while he became protective of her. When they finally decided to break out of the Dunwich Building, they were seperated by an attack involving the Brotherhood of Steel. The Brotherhood carried her off while they left Wicker for dead. She luckily escaped when the soldiers were killed off by a roaming gang of super mutants, who left her alone.

Since then, she has been looking for Wicker across the Wasteland for weeks.

Grabbing a nearby pistol he managed to eliminate two of the mercs, one threw a grenade in a house causing Moustace to dive for cover. The same Merc entered the house and Moustache leaped at him managing to disarm and kill him. Moustache had been badly wounded in the struggle and two of the final three entered and surrounded him. The final member walked in, he was a high ranking officer within Talon Company. He was impressed with Moustahce and offered him an ultimatum join Talon Company or be killed.

Moustache chose to join them and was immediately brought to Fort Bannister. There he was given his kit Talon Combat Armour, Black Combat Helmet, a Tri-Beam Laser Rifle and a Power Fist. He was asked if he excelled in any fields, he replied that he had a vast knowledge of medicene. He was assigned as the team medic and sent of on a contract to clear out a village of undesirables. The trip took many days and by the time they had arrived at the settlement it was midnight. The other Mercs started their assault breaking down doors and slaughtering all inside. Moustache looked in horror as they killed every many woman and child in sight. The attack lasted only a few minutes, the Mercs then set about looting corpses.

One merc approached a corpse pile where a father had thrown himself in front of the bullets approaching his child. The merc picked up the [b][/b]Black Sunglasses the father had been wearing and put them on and began taunting the dead family. Moustache flew into a rage and opened fire killing all the unprepared mercs in a few moments. He approached the merc in with the sunglasses, picked them up and put them on. He would wear these very sunglasses as a reminder to fight against the horrors of the Wates.

He would spend the next decade roaming the Capital Wasteland protecting its inhabitants. He received a scar during a fight with a Deathclaw. In return he had his gear customised in Rivet City having the Talon Comapny insignia removed from his armour and his weapons stained black.

Many years later while sleeping in his shack near the Republic of Dave he was woken up by a knock on his door he opened it to find a holodisk on the ground.

Child:

Name: Rhaekona (Pronounced Rye-uh-kah-nuh) Sumner
Overall Mood: As a child, Rhaekona was very quiet, and talked to no-one outside of his group of friends.
Age: 12 (Before leaving Vault)

Adult:

Age: 27
Hair: Slightly long, a deadly black.

Height: 5'9"

Apparel: Custom-made S.M.I.T.E.'M.
Serantonium Melded Into This Epic Model
(Serantonium Something I just made up, think of it as something like titanium)
Skill: Building in general, electronics, vehicles, weapons.



Story: As soon as he left the Vault, Rhaekona's first job was to change his name. After about 3 seconds, he moved on to his next objective: Protect Beverly Marsh at all costs. Rai had had a crush on her since he could ever remember seeing her. However, being a child, he grew bored after a few days and began wandering the wastes. Soon after that, he began telling himself that Bev was dead, and no longer even remembered her name.

After a few years of living in Canterbury Commons, Rai had decided he knew all he needed to know about the wastes, and moved on. He headed to Rivet City, where he took up work protecting caravans to and from Megaton from Raiders. However, during one unfortunate raid, Rai was captured. Not by Raiders, of course, but by the Enclave.

Rai's new "buddy's" took him to a secret base called "Raven Rock", where he was put under severe radiation tests. However, they did not give the desired effects. The Enclave had wanted to learn EXACTLY how Ghouls....happened. Instead, they gave Rai a vast amount of knowledge on building. Not just architecture, but building anything. After one particularly excruciating test, Rai decided he had had enough and made a sort of electric knife from a radio he had.

The next guard to walk by was quickly killed and looted. Rai left the base without so much as a shout from the other soldiers. However, before he left, he picked up a Gauss Rifle and a fairly large assortment of high-tech armor and weapons. After that, it was a simple task of taking a Verti-Bird and flying off.

Landing the 'Bird near a cave, Rai settled down for nearly 5 years, building all sorts of gadgets that he destroyed soon after creating them. There were a few that he kept, however. He made a particularly handy set of armor using metals he found in his cave. He had designed it to take full advantage of Night-Vision, Heat-Vision, Built-in Scopes (In the helmet), and even a medium-sized wrist mounted computer to replace his lost Pip-Boy.

One day, nearing the 15th anniversary of the day he had left the Vault, he discovered a small caravan run by a man named Lucky. Surprised when Lucky asked if his name was something along the lines of Ray, Rai quickly took the outstretched holotape, muttered a quick thanks, and went back to his cave.

After listening to it a dozen times, Rai learned that Bev was alive, and that she still remembered him (which made him feel quite guilty, as he had all but forgotten her.) He was supposed to meet her at a place called "Shalesbridge". He soon learned its location and left behind all of his creations except for his S.M.I.T.E.'M. armor, his Gauss Rifle, and his sword, quickly leaving to Shalesbridge...




Beverly:

As a child, Beverly had been one of the most "popular" kids in the Vault. She, however, had a secret crush on a quiet boy named Rhaekona. She was always very clever, taking up after her father, the Vault Doctor.

Adult:

Name: Bev

Eyes: A serene but dark blue

Story: After leaving the Vault, she went straight to Rivet City. She remained there until she returend to her room one day and found a holotape on her dresser. After listening to it, she learned that her childhood friends were (mostly) still alive. She gave a message to a man named Lucky, hoping he could find Rhaekona, and packed her things and left for Shalesbridge.

Upon Leaving the vault, Shave ya Head ran into raiders almost immediatly, when one of the raiders approached shave, he kicked the raider in the leg and puched him in the side of the head. The raider got back up to retaliate and the leader of the gang shot him in the leg, and called shave to him, he said he liked his attitude and that they would look after him. So over the years the reaiders brought shave up, then when shave was 15, the leader of that gang was killed in a botched ambush.

The raider who shave had kicked and punched then went to shoot shave, shave shot him once in the head, killing him. The rest of the raiders were taken out late in the night by a BoS Patrol, they took him to the Citadel where Elder Lyons granted him refuge. Shave Slowly became a decent soldier over a few years, at the age of 23 Shave went on patrol with some fellow BoS Initiates, they were attacked by mutants, and everyone but shave was killed. The BoS sent a recovery party to fetch there bodies, they left shave, saying he had failed his fallen comrades.

Just when shave thought it was all over he met Helen, Helen was a merchant who travelled the wastes selling and buying. She looked after shave for a while the shave agreed to be her caravan guard, Eventually they became an item. They regualry visited rivet city and megaton for drinking sessions with vera wetherly.

During one of there rounds 6 months after they met, they were attacked, this time shave was alot more focused after the last ambush, he took a few down, but got struck on the head and knocked unconcious, and fell down a cliff into some water. He woke up on a beach, and became devestated as he remembered what happend, surely helen had perished, he pulled himself up, and got back up the cliff, there was nothing there, he dragged himself to Rivet City where he sat in the muddy rudder, Drinking whiskey, drinking himself into oblivion.

When he finally left rivet city, he was walking along, only just managing to stand up, he was attacked by someone, they threw him on the ground and beat him up. He woke up and he had been stripped of everything, even most of his lothes were gone. He looked around and he was back in rivet city in the Wetherly Hotel. Vera, the owner told him what happend, and in turn, shave told her what happend to helen because they were friends. Vera was devestated, she then revealed something even worse, on there last visit to rivet city, helen had told vera that she was pregnant, Shave was going to be a father. It was at that point shave ran, he ran out of rivet city and as far away as he could, he came accross a merchant, shave beat the living daylights out of him and stole loads of goods, including some clothes weapons and alchohol, shave then came across a big high bridge. He climbed the railing and looked down, he thought nothing other tan this would numb the pain. He took a huge swig of whiskey, looked at the water below, knowing it should kill him instantly, and prepared to jump, when a hand pulled him down, It was elder lyons himself, lyons told shave how he heard what had happend and he was sorry, but this was not the way, shave shot him in the head, as well as the other BoS soldiers nearby and dived over the railing. Falling he remembered everything.

He remembered his failure as a raider, his failure as a soldier, a failure as a guard, a failure as a boyfriend, and worst of all, his failure as a father. He hit the water, And there was a light appeared, he heard someone say his name, a woman, it was helen.

'Shave, shave' she was saying, shave asked her what happend, 'you were shaking and crying in your sleep'. Shave sat up, 'bad dream i guess' he replied, Helen looked at him worryingly, 'im fine' said shave seeing her expression, 'What was it?' asked helen in a demanding tone. I was dreaming about my life, when i was a raider, when i was a soldier, then when i met you, but then it changes, you get killed on one of the rounds, and i go into a tail spin plummeting to earth', Helen looked at him worried. She didnt say anything, she just lay on the bed and went back to sleep. Shave lay down next to her, and slowly drifted back to sleep too

What felt like minutes later, shave's name was been said by helen again, he woke up and saw helen, she looked worried, shave quickly got up, 'Whats wrong helen?' asked shave, 'look' she said pointing at the foot of the front door. Shave looked over and there was a holotape sitting on the floor, slowly shave approached it, he picked it up and pressed play. A Voice came on and said 'Shave ya Head, You along with several others have been chosen by myself for great fortune, i know all about you, your past, amongst the raiders, and the Brotherhood of steel, i dont see you as a failure, more of a knight who has had a run of bad luck. but i think i can change your fortunes. Meet me outside Shalesbridge's Ant Hill 1 week from today, when the sun is highest in the sky, great fortune is yours for the takin.'

It was a cold day, though that didn’t faze Azurelao. He stood, Looking around Shalesbridge’s outside ignoring the cold as much as he could, slightly nervous, but also excited. He had called a meeting, but not just any meeting, a meeting of his old pals, The Vault kids. He stood checking his weapon, after all he wasn’t sure how they would react, they could be total asshole’s for all he knew. Only time time would tell.
Sitting on a rock he waited, for a few seconds he contemplated going back to the citadel. It was hard for him leaving the Citadel, he loved it. Being a Brotherhood of Steel Knight was a dream, an ambition, He wouldn’t let it go totally, but he would put it on hold for a while. For a few seconds he contemplated going back, when he heard a voice behind him…..

“So, which of the kids are you then?” Said a Ghoulish voice from behind him. Azurelao turned around to be faced with a ghoul, but it didn’t look very old, “I’m azurelao, who are you?” said Azurelao warily, “It’s me, Leo” said the ghoul. Azurelao looked at Leo with happiness at reuniting with someone finally, but also sadness at his situation. “What happened to you?” asked azurelao, looking at his face and hands. “Well” started leo when there was a noise behind them, they both stood up and turned around, There standing before them, was Ex.

“Hello people” Said Ex looking rather happy but miserable at the same time, “Now what do we have here?” said Leo, “Our little friend Ex, you haven’t changed a bit have you?”, Ex thought of something to say, but couldn’t, and instead nodded and sat down on the floor, Where he lit a fire. Finally he said “Well, I haven’t had much time to change, I was captured by slavers shortly after leaving the vault, my owner got killed in a raider attack a while ago, and I’ve been in the National Archives ever since. Not much to tell.” Said Ex in a brief sentence. “well……” Started Azurelao, but there was a huge explosion behind them……

They all jumped up, there was a mini mushroom cloud rising a few hundred yards away, they all ran towards it. There were 5 bodies lying on the ground, 4 of them clearly dead, one was lying on his back breathing heavily. They ran to him, weapons at the ready, slowly they approached. It was MastaC, a Vault kiddy. “MastaC?” said Leo, “Yeah” Nodded the guy on the floor, the guys pulled him to his feet, “You okay?” asked Ex, “yeah fine” he said picking his Zuanlong Assault rifle up off the ground. “What happened?” asked Azurelao, MastaC breathed for a second, then said “Saw those mercs going towards Shalesbridge, couldn’t have them messing with you guys could I?, Anyways they are dead now lets go”, “wait” said azurelao “The explosion what was it?”, “oh that” said MastaC, one of the mercs has a Fat Man, tried to shoot me with it, but I shot the nuke, so it blew up there and then, now lets go”.

They walked back to Shalesbridge, catching up on there life stories, as they approached, they saw a man sitting on a rock, “Shave, is that you?” shouted Ex, the man stood up “its me alright” said shave. “Sweet2 said MastaC. “Hey Azurelao, exactly how many people did you send messages too”?. “Everyone” said Azurelao, “Should get a few here if they all come”. The 5 Guys talked about old times, waiting for someone else to turn up, it started to get dark, so they made an even bigger fire. They sat 5 more minutes, then out of the darkness came a sound, lots of red beams came there way, they all dived behind cover. “What the hell is that” Shouted Ex, “That, my Friends, is a Gatling Laser Gun” Replied Azurelao, then they heard a voice say “Target Detected”, “It’s a Sentry Bot, shouted Leo, took a few of them apart in Underworld before”. “Shit what do we do”? said Shave, “Well” replied MastaC, “I think we should, you know, KILL IT”. Then that’s when they heard some sounds, electrics zapping, the Sentry Bots voice going dim, and the sounds of metal being ripped from Metal, then the Sentry bots top half flew through the air towards them, and landed between them all. Then out of the darkness came a Goliath…..

“Holy Shit” Said Shave and Azurelao at the same time. The guy was huge, taller than the lot of them, His muscles were huge, and he had one of the most menacing looks you would ever see. “Wicker” said Ex, “huh” replied the others, “Its Wicker” Repeated Ex. Wicker walked to the fire, picked up a burning piece of Wood , and started beating the Sentry Bots top half some more, then chucked the wood away. “You got him to come?” shave asked Azurelao, Wicker flung round and looked at shave, shave quickly sat down again. They heard yet another voice behind them…

“Now boys play nice” said a woman’s voice, they all looked except wicker, who sat down. It was indeed a woman, she was beautiful, with copper brown hair , and serene dark blue eyes, one of the most beautiful things you would ever see. “Beverly” said Azurelao, “Welcome, how are you”, “Put your toungue back in your head Azurelao” replied Beverly, “And its Bev now by the way” she added. They began talking again as bev sat down, then there was a serious of thuds on the ground, they looked around for the source, but the darkness limited there view. Then out of the darkness came a Huge figure, twice the height of Wicker, a Behemoth, it stopped and looked at them, even wicker hesitated, he ran forward and threw a rad bomb at it, which didn’t seem to faze the massive creature, then wicker punched and kicked at the behemoth, the behemoth flicked wicker aside with ease. Then Bev went forward while saying “All you boys and your Testostreone”, she walked forward, shot the behemoth once with her unique dart Gun, “The Flu Shot”, walked back, and the behemoth fell to the floor dead. Everyone just looked at her, there mouths wide open……

They continued talking when there was a noise several feet away, they jumped up and got in a line accidently, they saw it was just a radroach, they sat back down and continued talking when suddenly MastaC jumped up and shouted “What the *bleep* is that”?, everyone looked, there was a person in some kind of armor, crouching almost right in the middle of the camp. Everyone aimed there weapons, the figure stood up, put his hands in the air, walked slowly to bev, bended over and beckoned for her hand, wearily she gave it to him. The figure put his helmet on her hand as if he were kissing it. Then slowly he walked back, facing bev. “Rhaekona” said bev, slowly the figure took off his helmet, it was indeed rhaekona, he had long jet black hair with black eyes which had golden stripes on them. His armor wasn’t like anything they had ever seen. “Its rai now”, he said. Rai and Bev, clearly attracted to each other, sat down next to each other and began slowly talking.

Azurelao stood up and began to talk, “ok guys, I told you in your messages why to come here, there is indeed a secret room full of treasure hidden inside our old vault, now im pretty sure one of use can remember which vault we were in, so, anyone”?. There was Silence, no one replied, they all shook there heads “Jeez no one?, its only been 15 years godammit” Azurelao sat back down, Disapointment in his face “We could go around raiding all of these vaults, but there are 94 vaults here in the wasteland. It would take ages to search em all, “but” Azurelao stood up “I’m all for it, are you”?. Slowly one by one, everyone stood up, indicating that they were in. “Now” started Azurelao “I know that not everyone is here, but we need to move, we need to assume the rest arn’t coming or they are dead or something along those lines, we need to get on if we are going to do this. But you know I feared this would happen, so I prepared for it, I have a crap load of holotapes here, and a trader going past soon, we can send messages to out loved ones explaining the situation to them if you like. Everyone agreed, and one by one they took a holotape and went into some darkness to record there own private message’s to there loved ones.

“Ok guys” started Azurelao, “now I’ve decided that we will raid each vault as we find out about them, now theres a reason I brought you here, to shalesbridge. There is a Vault, hidden below shalesbridge. Now like most vaults, this one was full of people, obviously experiments of some kind were done on them, but I don’t know what, and I’m pretty sure none of you do either, so we have no idea what to expect in there, so I want everyone on guard, be alert throughout.” They all nodded in agreement. They each in turn opened the hatch to the ant cave, “Don’t worry about these little fellas guys, they wont hurt you, as long as you don’t hurt them” Shouted Azurelao. They reached the end of the cave and looked around, no sign of a huge metal door though. “Well where is it?” said Ex to Azurelao, Azurelao took out his gun and shot the floor near the water, it hit some metal, Rai went forward and brushed aside the dirt where azurelao hit, “We got a door here, a small one, its more of a hatch, but its definetly man made”, Rai pulled the Hatch’s edges, but it wouldn’t budge.

“Now”, said Azurelao, “We need a good swimmer”, most of the guys looked at the water, “Me, im not bad” said MastaC, “Ok, now you gotta go down then feel around for a ladder, then that ladder will go into a hole in the wall, so you wont actually have to do much swimming. Just pull your self to the end, and there will be another room there, go upwards and you’ll be in a room, this hatch will be on the ceiling above you. And there will also be a door, don’t open it until we are all there, we have no idea what’s on the other side of that door” Azurelao finished, then made sure MastaC understood. Shave nodded at mastac for encouragment, MastaC jumped into the freezing cold water, he couldn’t see very well, but he continued on, he felt around the wall for a ladder, or at least something metal. He found it, it was a bar on the wall, and above another, he saw vaguely a ladder, then it disappearing into a whole in the wall. He pulled him self along as quickly as he could, then eventually he saw light, he quickly swam upwards and gasped for air, he looked around, and there indeed was a closed door, and a hatch in the ceiling, he jumped up out of the water and opened the hatch with all his strength. The other watched as it opened, MastaC climbed back down the ladder and gave the all clear. One by one they all climbed down the ladder.

Once all were down it, they approached the door, it looked like a regular door you would find in any building. Slowly Azurelao opened, they entered and there it was in front of them, a great big Cog-shaped door, one the front, in big yellow numbers, was the number 50, along with the door’s control next to it. Azurelao punched in a Code in the control, there was the usual vault siren, then the sound of a machine behind the door, The door moved backwards along with a huge screech, And Vault 50’s Door, rolled open……
